Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu
Dear Brothers and Sisters
I wish you a happy and blessed Ramadan Kareem and may the blessings of Allah be with you.
May Allah send His help and blessings to the ummah of the Beloved Prophet (SAW) in this holy month and protect them from all the disasters of the Sky and the Earth and from the storms of irreligion and immorality and grant an awakening to humanity who is looking for true religion.
May Allah give success to Muslims in reaching a strong unity and cooperation and save them from oppression and persecution. May Allah make this blessed month a means of love and brotherhood among them.
We pray and hope from Allah, the Almighty to remove all sorts of ignorance, poverty and disagreement prevailing in the Muslim World.
May Allah shower us with abundant blessing, grace and mercy in this holy Ramadan and turn it into a period of forgiveness. We pray and ask Allah to save mankind from this pandemic in the shortest time and make it a good opportunity for mankind to find the true path and bestow the believers to raise the Word of of Allah over the face of the Earth.
From now I wish you blessings from Allah at Laylat Al-Qadr and Eid-ul-Fitr.
